Description

"The mosaics executed in Rome from the third century until the Renaissance period is one of the glories of late classical and, more particularly, medieval art. Oakeshott deals with these mosaics technically: how the mosaics were made, the materials used, and the methods of restorers. He then describes the mosaics in detail, unfolding the development of style they reveal and which are well illustrated with tipped-in colour plates. 388p. illus bibliography. index NOTE : Very heavy [ kg] oversized volume [ cm]
